Oklahoma Sooners football coach Brent Venables expressed frustration with the team's recent performance and acknowledged the problems they have been facing. He provided a health update, stating that several players are day-to-day, including linebacker Danny Stutsman, running back Tawee Walker, and cornerback Gentry Williams. Venables emphasized that the team is eager to finish the season strong. He declined to elaborate on offensive play-calls in the previous game but acknowledged the team's high number of penalties. Venables stressed the need for accountability in addressing these issues. The Sooners are preparing to face West Virginia University.
Saban on Deontae Lawson and Jaylen Key: "Haven't been able to practice yet but still kind of day-to-day. If guys can't practice Thursday, it's pretty tough for them to play in a game. So maybe we'll know more tomorrow."

My takeaway from this morning's presser with Brent Venables: He's well aware of the problems OU has and the issues that have cropped up over the last three weeks. He's also plenty frustrated with the state of things. That much was clear over 30 minutes today.
Brent Venables' health update pre-WVU: "It's day-to-day. Met with the trainer just a little bit ago. We've got several guys that are day-to-day." He says Sooners LB Danny Stutsman and RB Tawee Walker practiced yesterday. CB Gentry Williams will practice today.
